Will was here on an official at Stormfest.
I think he might be from France.

A 3 star SF/PF out of Florida. Havent seen his name before.
Per Scout we have offered and lead:
http://scouthoops.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p=8&c=1&nid=4430065

Also per scout same link:

 He’s not the biggest guy on the blocks, but the lengthy 6-foot-6 power forward from Florida Air in Melbourne was a total beast on Saturday. During the final game of the day, he corralled an incredible 19 rebounds in just over 12 minutes of actual game time. Quick off the floor, determined and willing to bang, he’s deserving of much more recruiting attention than he’s received and could be a difference maker on the glass at the upper mid major level.

Also at same weekend:http://www.scout.com/a.z?s=143&p=2&c=903232&ssf=1&RequestedURL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.scout.com%2fa.z%3fs%3d143%26p%3d2%26c%3d903232

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – Typically, camps are dominated by guards. The Nike Team Florida Fall Workout was just the opposite. Okaro White was the top dog in the gym but forward Will Yeguette did his best Dajuan Blair and pulled down 50 rebounds in three games!

another link, but just a (May 09) forum posting:

USC basketball coach Darrin Horn is interested in 6-6 SF Will Yeguete of France who attends Florida Air Academy in Melbourne, FL. Horn got a look at Yeguete while recruiting Ty Armstrong who signed with Auburn. FAI coach Aubin Goporo said Horn plans to recruit Yeguete who averaged 14 points and 10 rebounds per game last season. Yeguete has been offered by Auburn and Virginia Tech. He's also drawing interset from Alabama. "He does a lot of different things," Goporo said. "He's very skilled, he passes the ball well, and he's always around the basket. He can guard all five spots. He needs to put weight on." Goporo said if Yeguete stays in America this summer and is seen by recruiters, the interest in him should continue to grow.

I like the sounds of him.  We need an ultimate bruiser.  We always used to have one, and I guess Sean Evans is somewhat of one, but I love guys just have knack for getting boards.

Kid, I would agree--if we had more schollies to give.  With just one, I hope we land a higher rated prospect, preferably a local kid.

Red I tend to agree with you. Unless the Kid is underrated.

The fact that Auburn & VT have offered prob means he has advanced to a solid D1.

But unless he's BE starter potential(Which I have no idea), I would
either prefer a PG or CTR, a top 50-75 kid, or hold till spring.
